Mac OS X will not run on a Acer period. but thats not to stop you from installing an alternative operating system that's way faster and better than windows 7 and the Mac, If you only know about Mac OS/x and windows you need to wake up to the fact they are not the only operating systems in the world. There are 100's of other Free operating systems that's far superior then windows and Mac OS/x operating system
Here is just one Alternative Operating system
Zorin Linux Operating system
Zorin Desktop Look Changer
The Look Changer lets you change your desktop to look and act like Windows 7, XP, Vista, 2000, Mac OS X or Linux (GNOME) for ultimate ease of use.

1. You can buy a program called Parallels: http://www.parallels.com/landingpage/dskd75-3/?source=g_us&gclid=CLOj5r3H5aoCFcLBKgoda0ZZug
It will allow you to run Windows 7 on the MAC laptop.
2. Use the recovery disk you (SHOULD have) made when you ran your computer for the 1st time.
3. Get a Windows 7 Install disk and boot from the disk, Choose to format the hard drive and the MAC OS will be gone and replaced with Windows. 7
4. IF IF IF you did not delete the restore partition when you installed Snow Leopard boot to the restore partition of your computer and do a complete restore.
5. Buy a copy of Windows 7 and re-install it.

If you wiped out the recovery program in the hidden partition and you don't have a recovery disc, it's going to cost you. Buy it from Acer or buy a new Windows 7 operating system.
You should have created a a system image of your computer before you installed Mac OS X.
